This book was full of insight. If you've ever wondered how some museums got certain antiquities, this has a lot of answers. While, it doesn't happen with every single museum, it still makes you wonder. This book focuses on the J. Paul Getty Museum in LA. It was immensely readable, and I loved it. The book also had an amazing bibliography, which led me to other books about the same subject.

Nice patterns, but nothing I haven't seen before. I like most of them, but again it's your average sock knitting book. I guess there's only so many socks under the sun? I really like fair isle and there were only a few fair isle and color combo socks. There was a lot of lace and I don't do lace. It really depends on what kind of socks you like.

A little slow at the beginning
Interesting book
This book is a little slow to start off. That would be my biggest criticism of it. However, once it gets going, it's a roller coaster ride from there. The book just gets more interesting the further you go. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants to read a good book.

Love these books, so much more in them than in the series. Don't get me wrong I like the series as well yet with the books I can read them over and over again, which I can't do with the series unless I can afford to buy the DVD's. In the books we find out a lot more about the characters and how they became queen of the dragons, etc.

Rushed end (0 more)
I really liked the premise of this book, but the end felt rather rushed. I wish the author would have taken a bit more time on the most important part of the book- the talk. There was a lot of lead up to it and then it felt really drab and not realistic in how quick and easy it went. It was a good book, regardless.

A clever sci-fi
good dark sci fi film with the right amount of tension and some strange moments. Well worth a watch as its a cross between Event Horizon and Alien which in itself is a strange concept. A lot of Internationally talented actors make up the cast and as usual there is one character that steals what bit of humour there is.

It was a good book and I’m sure the sequel will be even better but I feel like there could have been more depth to it. I don’t know, I just think there was something missing. When it ended I felt it was a bit meh. I’ll read the next one because I dislike leaving it on a cliff hanger but I hope there’s a lot more to it.

Great Popcorn Movie
I've enjoyed this movie since I was a kid and I own a copy of it. I like watching it fairly often. It's campy, but fun with a lot of great one liners from Kurt Russell. The story is interesting and the fight scenes are entertaining. Sure, it looks a little dated, but it's still a great popcorn movie with the right mix of comedy and action.
